摘要：
A medication delivery device usable with a medication container wherein advancement of a piston within the container expels medication. The device includes a housing and a drive assembly. The drive assembly includes a drive ribbon having distal and proximal edge sections. The drive ribbon has a retracted configuration defining a spiral and an extended configuration defining a helix. The drive ribbon is movable from the retracted configuration to the extended configuration with such movement defining a drive axis and advancing the piston. In some embodiments, the drive ribbon may not rotate as it is advanced while in other embodiments, the ribbon does rotate. The disclosed drive assemblies include manually driven assemblies, spring driven assemblies and motor driven assemblies. The containers may be replaceable to allow for reuse of the device. In some embodiments, replaceable cartridges which includes both a medication container and a drive ribbon are employed.
